Job 26:7-13

7He 1stretches out the north over empty space And hangs the earth on nothing.8He 2wraps up the waters in His clouds, And the cloud does not burst under them.9He 34obscures the face of the 5full moon And spreads His cloud over it.10He has inscribed a 6circle on the surface of the waters At the 7boundary of light and darkness.11The pillars of heaven tremble And are amazed at His rebuke.12With His power He 8quieted the sea, And by His 9understanding He shattered 1011Rahab.13By His breath the 12heavens are 13cleared; His hand has pierced 14the fleeing serpent.
